Abstract

An apparatus (100)comprises a main body member (110), and a transducer (120) in communication with the main body member, transducer adapted to receive an acceleration force imparted to the main body member. A method for assessing acceleration forces imparted to an apparatus comprises a main body member (110) and transducer (120) in communication with the main body member the transducer adapted to receive the external acceleration force imparted to the main body member, wherein the transducer converts the acceleration forces to electrical signals and the acceleration
